Description

Ezra Pound's 1912 Walking Tour of Southern France is a personal and poetic account of his journey through the troubadour landscape of medieval Provence. In this newly edited and transcribed version, Pound's original notebooks are presented in a remarkably readable form, alongside the poet's own reflections on his experiences and the cultural heritage of the region.

Through his walking tour, Pound sought to reconnect with the poetry and spirit of medieval Provence, which had a profound influence on his own work as a modernist poet. This book offers a unique insight into Pound's creative process and his ongoing fascination with the troubadour tradition.

Edited by Richard Sieburth, this edition of Pound's Walking Tour provides a fascinating glimpse into the poet's thoughts and feelings during a pivotal moment in his life. With its unique blend of poetry, history, and personal reflection, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in Ezra Pound and the cultural heritage of southern France.
